Solution

The answer is the third one: andropause.

Explanation for each option:

Cryptorchidism: This is a condition where one or both of the testes fail to descend from the abdomen into the scrotum. It is not related to the decrease of testosterone levels in men.
Epididymitis: This refers to inflammation of the epididymis, a tube at the back of the testicle that stores and carries sperm. It is usually caused by infection and is not related to testosterone levels.
Andropause: This is the correct answer. Andropause is sometimes referred to as male menopause and is characterized by a gradual decline in testosterone levels in men, typically occurring in middle age.
Azoospermia: This is a medical condition where a man's semen contains no sperm. It is related to fertility issues rather than a decrease in testosterone levels.

In summary, the condition characterized by a decrease in testosterone levels in men, sometimes referred to as male menopause, is called andropause.
